Today in Utah, Jacob Kingston’s testimony finished his testimony after the defence retired. And, tonight, Jill Parrish, Judge for the US District Court for Utah has released the transcripts of text messages exchanges between John Saldivar and Jacob Kingston. And we know it is John Saldivar because the cell phone number in the text messages is the number we have for him form many years, up to the present day. Â
We will present everything that was entered into evidence. It begins at 3:10 pm on February second, 2011, Saldivar opens saying “Hey Jacobâ€.
He asks, “How are things?â€Â And identifies himself, saying (it’s) “John Saldivar, brotherâ€. Saldivar then tells Kingston he is quote, “Nervous†because he has, quote, “some commitments for this week and am not hearing from Levon.â€Â
Saldivar adds, quote, “Four of my candidates have been successful in conventions already….It’s looking real good so far but am out of cash†end quote.Â
He then says, quote, “Really need the February tranche.â€Â Kingston asks, “Can I wire?â€Â Saldivar says, “Hmmm. Not sure that's a good idea.â€Â
Kingston asks, “Tell me how.â€Â Saldivar replies, “I could probably fly to Miami tomorrow.â€
Kingston replies, “I'll send some money to Miami. I'll let you know the contact person to meet. It I'll be there Friday.â€Â
He asks Saldivar, “Tell me how much to send.â€
And Saldivar replies, “Usual is 25k but perhaps it's best to deal with March at the same time.†End quote.
So, Saldivar is here asking for 50 thousand US dollars, and then Kingston doesn’t reply for about 40 minutes.
So, Saldivar then texts back, saying, “You there?…Awaiting your confirmation.â€Â Kingston replies “Confirmed…I'll talk to Levon.â€
Saldivar then states, quote, “Ok. I will head to Miami Thursday.â€
Two days later, on February 13, 2014, Kingston gives him the name and number for a contact in Miami.  Saldivar says, “Ok buddyâ€Â
Kingston then follows up on February 16th, asking Saldivar, quote, “You get what you needed?â€
Saldivar replies, “Yes buddy. Nuff thanks.â€
